Hi Guys, just wondering if anyone out there knows when the 5 series facelift will be launched in southe east asia especially MALAYSIA. My bmw dealer and all bmw dealers in malaysia refuse to give a launch date which i suspect is because they want to sell of the existing non facelift stock which is unfair to consumers! HELP! any feedback appreciated....

I found this on the malaysian Homepage:

Kuala Lumpur, 17 March 2007

BMW Malaysia Sdn Bhd today announced the launch of the new, enhanced BMW X3 compact premium Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV). The new BMW X3 comes with a comprehensive host of new offerings and features significantly better product substance in interior trimmings, suspension set up and a brand new engine.



In my opinion the new 5 series will be launched in 3 to 5 month...

Mr. M

That would be about right. I have no idea about the 5er facelift launch dates in Singapore... I'll keep a lookout.

BMW just started publishing adverts on the newspaper here in Singapore

Mr. M

thanks aston n james for the intel! hopefully kl gets the 5 series facelift very soon! the 5 series is assembled in malaysia so im wondering if singapore imports the car from malaysia or germany as im sure it more cost efficient 2 get it from malaysia as opposed 2 shipping the car from germany, what do u guys think??
